Captain Chip and Jay were fantastic. Even in less than ideal conditions, they were doing everything to put us onto fish. We had an incredible time catching a bunch of bluefish and then heading over to catch some seabass for dinner. They treated myself, my daughter, and her boyfriend with the utmost respect and made sure we had a great time. Even though the stripers eluded us today, a fun time was had by all. I highly recommend and would not hesitate to use them again.
Captain Chip was fantastic and we had a wonderful time out on our charter. We lost count of the number of fish we caught, but we caught striped bass less than 28” and some over 34” so we didn’t get any keepers. We did keep 3 of the bluefish we caught and they were big and tough fighters. Captain Chip knows his way around Aquidneck Island and it was funny watching others follow him/us as we kept catching fish! My friend and his son from PA both commented many times on how this was the best fishing trip they had ever been on. All thanks to Captain Chip. He was fantastic with 12 year old Andrew. We bottom fished with eels, used bobbers, umbrellas, etc. Tried all types of poles and setups and were delighted with how many fish we got on the lines. Would highly recommend Reel Addiction Charters.
Captain chip and mate Paul were phenomenal. We started trolling for striper and caught two nice ones right off the bat, the winds picked up and seas got rough so we headed into the bay and fished for tautog and sea bass. We caught a ton of both and took home a cooler full of fish. This charter is phenomenal, great conversations, great experience, they showed us landmarks, famous houses on our way out, put us on the fish. Plenty of live bait. It was a great experience even with all that Mother Nature threw at us !! We will be back again!!

Had our first fishing trip with Captain Chip and he didn't disappoint. He was friendly and very knowledgeable and got us to a place not crowded and full of fish. We were fishing for hours and catching everything. Would very much recommend and will be rebooking in the summer for Strip Bass.
Great crew and really enjoyed the dedication they took to put us on some fish and even extra time to land some.

Great team of Captains! Long time friends, fishermen and residents. We learned a ton while spotting fish and making successful catches all morning, all while laughing and enjoying a beautiful weather day. Lures were a combination of fake and live bait. They come prepared to come home with fish!

Capt. Chip is the man, he worked to keep us on the fish and we limited out on Stripers. We had the chance to fish several methods and top water is definitely the best. This is our second trip on Reel Addiction and we are already planning our trip next year.if you want a true fishing experience don’t look anywhere else. Thanks Chip for a truly great experience again. See you next year. Ken, Jareth, and Mike.
Captain Chip was the man. He was extremely responsive to any questions prior to our trip and worked extremely hard to make sure we had a great experience taking our nephew out for his birthday. He went above and beyond even taking us out twice when weather conditions cut our first trip short. We hope to come back and go out with him again.

We had a fantastic trip. Captain Chip worked hard to keep us on the fish and harder to get us there. I know we kept Gus busy and he was always on top of making sure we had bait or helping us get unstuck from the bottom. We can’t thank the both of you enough for the great experience. We are already planning the next trip with Captain Chip.

Thank you so much! You all made the day so fun for us! Was great having people that had so much experience, and we all laughed all day. Would love to see you all again in the future!!!

The captain put us right on top of some fish numerous times resulting in taking home the catch.

I really appreciate the nice review. Unfortunately, it was an off day. Was hoping for more. But you all were so great to have on board!

Thank you so much for the more than kind review. Day could of been better, but we did get some food for the table. Was great having you both on the boat.

So, first off let me first say that Chip had us out there for just about 6 hours; it was a scheduled 4 hour trip. So I decided to take my 10 year old son deep sea fishing. I simply googled “deep sea fishing RI” and a bunch of choices came up. Not knowing anyone of them from personal experience I went with reviews and FEEL. I chose Real Addiction Charters. And I hit the proverbial jackpot. All I can say is WOW!! Chip and his second mate were beyond phenomenal. This guy and the second mate knew their stuff and they provided my son and I with a memory that will live forever. Chip and his second mate were cordial, funny and right there to provide assistance when needed while allowing us as much autonomy as we could handle. And he books in a way where you don’t feel rushed. The fish weren’t biting at first, but that was of no concern to Chip. With his superior knowledge of the sea and amazing equipment (that was very interesting by the way) coupled with the fact he was willing to basically stay out there for AS LONG AS IT TOOK, anyone who charters with him is taking their best chance at a successful and amazingly memorable experience. We already booked another trip with him for next year!! The day we got back. By the way my son caught a sea bass that we kept and Chip flayed it right there on his boat. Hands down Chip is the man.

Thank you so much for that fantastic review. Glad you both had such a great time! I do want to do whatever it takes to get people on fish, even if it means staying out longer. I consider myself the Captain With A Conscience.
